More horrible news!
A train in the small town of Lac-Megantic, Quebec, Canada reportedly exploded and has caused some major destruction in the area.
The train had reportedly been pulling more than 70 tankers of crude oil when it supposedly parked and ended up slipping downhill which caused it to derail and crash into downtown. As a result, homes and historic buildings were supposedly leveled.
Not only that, but the tanker ended up in flames!
As of now, it’s reported that at least five people are dead from the accident, but 40 are still missing.
We hope people are able to find their loved ones!
Our thoughts are with everyone suffering from the accident!
